The great awakening was about making people individualists when it came to religion. Moving away from institutionalized religion and into the realm of self-reflection and religion being a personal thing. Since the religion was usually tied to the country, making it a personal thing could have implications that governing of a state should be a personal thing, that is that people should not have a monarchy and rather a republic.
